Beri
From Jatland Wiki
Beri बेरी village, which previously fell under district Rohtak Haryana, is now part of newly-created Jhajjar district. It is a large village and is also one of the seats of Haryana Vidhan Sabha constituency. After the creation of Haryana on 1st November 1966, the first Chief Minister of the State, Dr. Bhagwat Dayal Sharma, was from this village.
It is a historical village, in existence from pre-Mahabharata period. The famous Bheemeshwari भीमेश्वरी Temple is situated on the outskirts of this village, connected to many folk tales relating to one of the Pandavas, Bheemsen. The temple attracts large crowds from many surrounding villages. Many traders or Banias of this village have now shifted to far flung places like Calcutta. They still own their traditional houses in the village and pay regular visits to the temple. Beri also used to host the largest cattle fair of India, which has now shifted to neighbouring Jehazgarh village.
Jat gotra is Kadian. Beri is actually the heart of Kadyan Khap.
